1. Connectors

Last updated: 06-21-2025

Connectors transform raw data sources into the Tuva data model. More specifically, connectors are dbt projects that contain SQL models that transform raw healthcare data formats into the Tuva Input Layer. The Tuva Input Layer acts like a staging layer for the entire Tuva Project. Once a data source has been properly transformed into the Input Layer the rest of the Tuva data model can be created with a single command.

We are building connectors for as many standard healthcare data sources as possible. We currently have connectors for the following standard data formats:
